How do you find the meds? Anyone tried non-stimulants? (feddit.uk)

So I’m in titration and I’m currently on Vyvanse 50mg. I’ve already tried methylphenidate up to around 60mg I think, but they just made me jittery. The Vyvanse doesn’t seem to be a whole lot better. I guess I feel ever so slightly better but it’s somewhat of an out-of-body experience and I feel the crash before the end of the work day. What I really wanted help with was my memory and context switching, and to be able to speak more clearly. I think that might have fixed all the other disorganisation issues, etc.

I’m considering asking to try the non-stimulant ones but I can’t really find anecdotal evidence of their effectiveness. Anyone tried them?

I'm also on Vyvanse 50mg. I've been much more fortunate with the side effects. Did you happen to start any other medication at the same time as Vyvanse?

Also, adhd@lemmy.world might be a better place to post this, as it's a serious non-meme community.
